    Hi rlt,
    Having no water in the country doesn't stop the water rates level from rising.
    Regards,

    Hi Ted.
    Help on the way. Well if you ask nicely we could send you some water from over here, the Mudgembidgi [hope I've spelt it right or John will have a bite} river going through Wagga was about 17 meters wide; now it is 17 Kilometers wide. The rain has stopped but the water flows on to towns down river. We have just had a huge jump in our inscurance's so we are cutting them to the bone.
    Cheers Des

    There is no such thing as GOOD NEWS anywhere in this crazy world Red Lead, so take heart you are not alone. I listen to 10 minutes on the 0700 news ABC (Australian BBC) which is enough to brown me off for the day and then I studiously ignor all future bulletins.

    The Murrumbidgee river along with the Campaspe and Murray are at full flow. How much water would you like mate, can youy arrange a couple of tankers? You must have plenty over there as the cost of fuel is so high they may well stop importing it, no one can afford it.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Hi John,
    Your tap water can't be fit for drinking. To make it palatable, just add (the water of life) "whisky" to it. By dilligent effort, you'll learn to like it and "drooping Willy" (your former upstanding friend) will soon rise from the two kit bags he's been sitting on for the past few weeks.

    Regards,
    FOURO.
